Riskplaza Europe: the online database for information on the safety of food ingredientsRiskplaza is completely based on the European Union Hygiene Regulation. This regulation requires two important things.
Firstly, all food business operators have to identify all the hazards of their foods. Secondly, all food business operators have to verify the food safety of their foods. This also includes the food safety of their ingredients and raw materials.
The first aim is to provide more transparency regarding hazardsin foods.
The second objective is to prevent unnecessary duplication of checks in the food chain. If each food business operator checks his supplier, then
you can imagine how often the same supplier could be checked regarding the same product. This is unnecessary and costs a lot of time and money for all parties involved. So, Riskplaza wants to help realise that ‘once checked’ it is accepted in the whole supply chain.
We created two products to achieve the objectives we have just covered. One is a database and the other is an audit system.
The database was designed to give insight into all potential hazards concerning any food ingredient at any point in the food supply chain.
The audit system focuses on suppliers of food ingredients. Suppliers can guarantee that 100% of their ingredients meet the legal requirements.
